V. READING COMPREHENSION
1. Read the passage and choose the best answer.
I work in a factory which makes plastic pipes. I don’t like the job very much because I do the
same things every day. I want to find a new job but my friend Terry tells me that I should stay. He is
looking for a job but he can’t find one, which is strange because they are building a lot of new factories
in our town.
Of course, Terry doesn’t dress very well and he usually arrives late everywhere. He is training to
be an accountant and he goes to college every day, but his parents don’t send him any money. That’s
why he usually comes round to my house to eat. But lucky he’s a good cook, so at the moment while I
am writing this, he is cooking the dinner.

V. READING COMPREHENSION
1. Read the passage and choose the best answer.
We have seasons because the Earth is tilted! The Earth is tilted on its axis as it orbits around the
Sun. The axis is the imaginary line that runs between the North Pole and the South Pole. The Earth
rotates around this axis. When the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun, it gets more direct
sunlight for more time each day than does the Southern Hemisphere. This makes the days longer in the
north. The air and the oceans warm in the sunlight, and the temperature goes up. These are the months
of spring and summer.
When it's summer in one hemisphere, its winter in the other. When it's spring in one hemisphere,
it's autumn - or fall - in the. other. If the Earth wasn’t tilted, the sunlight would be the same all year
round. The Sun would rise and set at the same time each day. There would be no seasons. This is what
it's like near the equator, the imaginary line that circles the planet around its middle. The Earth's tilt
has only a small effect there, so the seasons change very little.

For many people the language of the Internet is English. "World, Wide, Web: Three English
Words” was the name of an article by Michael Specter in the New York Times a few years ago. The article
went on to say: "If you want to take full advantage of the Internet, there is only one real way to do it:
learn English."
In general, it is not difficult to learn to use Internet services. But although Internet services are
rather easy to use, you will have considerable difficulties if you are not familiar with English. In fact,
knowledge of English is one of the most important aspects that help you use the Internet. Learning to
use a new Internet service may take a few hours, a few days, or some weeks, but it takes years to learn
a language so that you can use it fluently and confidently. Of course, when you know some English, you
can learn more just by using it on the Internet. But at least your English should be good enough to
understand commonly used words and to know what to do on the Internet.
66. This passage talks about
A using the Internet.
B the role of English on the Internet.
C learning English.
D services of the Internet. ‘
67. The opposite of the word advantage in the passage is
A unadvantage
B inadvantage.
C disadvantage.
D imadvantage.

68. The word it in the passage refers to
A English.
B the Internet.
C the service.
D a language.
69. Which of the following is NOT true?
A Internet is serviced widely.
B English is very necessary on the Internet.
C We learn English by using the Internet.
D Using a language fluently will not take you several years.
70. The word commonly in the passage is closest in meaning to
A widely.
B successfully.
C necessarily.
D normally.
